Republican Challenger’s Twitter Account Suspended

Twitter has suspended the account of a politician after a series of controversial tweets over the weekend. Republican Paul Nehlen wants to challenge House Speaker Paul Ryan for his southern Wisconsin seat. Nehlen’s tweet included a picture of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Nehlen had replaced Markle’s face with a photo of Cheddar Man, an ancient man recreated from the D-N-A in a fossil found in the English village of Cheddar. Nehlen says he was making a joke.
